I registrated two model in slicer and get the transform but it is not the same with VTK.(The promblem may be “different coordinate system” )  
I searched the forum to deal with it by python code(get the slicer’s transformcould be import in vtk) but get nothing.  
And another problem: can I set the same coordinate system between VKT and slicer?  
Thanks.  
The different results:

The Transforms module developer documentation should answer all your questions: [https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developer\_guide/modules/transforms.html#transform-files](https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developer_guide/modules/transforms.html#transform-files)

If anything is not clear then let us know.
